Yong-Woo Park in Once Upon a Time in Corea (2008)

One thing comes to mind when I finished watching this film, Indiana Jones.
Not in terms of plot line or characters, just the tone of both films is extremely similar: an action oriented drama with light-hearted bits thrown in for good measure. The film itself was simply OK, I did not care for any of the characters, and the last block simply drags on forever. There is one action scene in the saloon that is wonderfully choreographed (and funny), but that's about all the good it contains.

This shirtless scene comes early in the film; it plays out like a striptease, but he is alone and at the end he simply just changed! To this day I still don't understand the purpose other than flaunting his physique, (maybe that is the purpose?) Well, called it a nice and unexpected surprise.
